ResponderEliminarLatest Feedback on 9600 Mac/PC Edition Graphics card in 4x AGP Mac - Here's a clip from the latest reader report on the ATI 9600 Mac/PC edition in a 4x AGP Mac (Digital Audio), including his notes on cleaning the contacts that helped solve the 'no video' problem several readers reported here last fall. (Some noted a replacement card worked, some said reseating, etc. helped but it was not a fix for everyone that had the problem. ATI earlier this year posted a revised 9600 Mac/PC Edition compatibility note that no longer lists the Digital Audio and Quicksilver models as compatible.)
(a clip from his long mail)
"...Obtained from eBay a G4/466 with 4x AGP -- (serious budgetary constaints, so I figure we can just swap the client's RAM & internal HDs over to it), for less than the cost of the 9600 Pro. Waited 6 goddam weeks for Apple to ship the 30" display. Finally it arrives. I assemble everything in the workshop, install the 9600 Pro, and boot the machine. No video, of course -- with either the Apple 30" or an Acer 15" which was lying around -- which worked fine with the factory-installed G4 OEM card.
With awful visions of having to refund the cost of an Apple 30" / 9600 Pro combo, and therefore tearing out hair and mumbling, I updated ATi drivers, zapped P-RAM, reset Open Firmware, sacrificed goats, you name it -- nothing. Not even a flicker -- not one blink of video.
Desparately googled "ATi 9600 pro mac problem", and your site popped up. Read the whole sorry saga with mounting dread. Then, (and facing east the whole while), I removed the card and reseated it 20 times, finally pressing it home with sufficient force to make blood vessels stand out. Connected up and booted -- still nothing, just that stubborn orange light on the Acer monitor.
Then I saw those strange little paragraphs about contact cleaning with an eraser, and the one from the MDD user who installed the card loosely without the screw. (he's referring to posts from 2005 in the news page - linked at the bottom of the 9600 Mac/PC edition compat. page here.-Mike) At this point, anything was worth a try, so I pulled the card, and cleaned the contacts both sides with an eraser solidly for 5 minutes. They were very shiny when I'd finished! I then wiped them with a cloth moistened with Zippo fuel, and reinstalled the card without the screw, connected the monitor, and booted the Mac with the case open so the card could be wiggled if required.
Hallelujah -- it worked!! The monitor image was mostly in shades of pink, but it worked. I wiggled the card a bit, and the image repeatedly came and went. Then I put the screw in, and the colours came back. I connected the Apple 30" to the other DVI port, and that worked too. It's now solid, perfect and very quick.
... clearly these cards (1) ship with something unpredictable spread all over the contacts which is an excellent insulator and needs to be removed, and (2) in an older machine, the AGP slot itself will have had a pile of dust blown at it by the PSU fan for years, so that needs to brushed out too. I suspect that physical contact is probably the bulk of the problem, and the technical smokescreen given by the ATi tech you interviewed is not often the cause.
Thanks again -- my day is made!

I can't promise that this will work for everyone but originally a contact issue was suspected, although ATI's later comments dispute that. I've added this to the page on ATI Radeon 9600 Mac/PC Edition Compatibility Notes, which has links to past posts from 2005 on this issue, reports from 2006 and ATI's comments from earlier this year after they posted a revised compatibility tech note on the card.
